Tactiq is a bot-free Chrome extension that reads live captions on Google Meet, Zoom, and Microsoft Teams and turns them into summaries.

Who each product serves best

Tactiq fits a browser-only workflow with occasional meetings: a consultant, PM, or founder who wants a low-friction Chrome extension that pulls the platform caption stream into a transcript with AI summaries. Nothing to install beyond the extension.

RecordX fits a workflow where the day spans video, phone, and in-person recordings; where caption quality isn't good enough (non-English languages, jargon, names); or where Hebrew end-to-end matters. Solo pros and small teams that need one library across every conversation type.

Where Tactiq wins

Where RecordX wins

When not to switch

If your entire workflow is Google Meet or Zoom in the browser with high-quality English captions and you don't need phone or in-person recording, Tactiq is genuinely lighter and cheaper. RecordX is heavier because it records actual audio and ships a mobile app plus softphone. Match the tool to the actual scope.

FAQ

Is Tactiq bot-free like RecordX?

Yes. Both stay out of the participant list. Different capture method, same privacy stance.

Does Tactiq record audio?

Tactiq reads platform captions rather than recording audio. RecordX records the audio.

Why does real-audio matter?

Platform captions drop names, mishear jargon, skip whole phrases, and vary in quality across languages. A summary built on caption text inherits every caption error. Real-audio transcription like RecordX runs the audio through a dedicated speech pipeline with speaker diarization.

Does Tactiq record phone calls?

No, and no in-person recording either. Tactiq is browser-only. RecordX ships a real softphone with personal DID per user, plus native mobile apps for in-person capture.
